Anza Animal Clinic
Westlake Village, California
General Info
Anza Animal Clinic delivers veterinary services across greater California from Westlake Village by allowing pets to set their own treatment pace. The combination of ear direction foot placement and body lean controls every step from initial approach to final diagnosis. The session opens with spatial reading: the pet's weight anchoring methods, eye movement frequency, and tail motion stability versus hesitation. Staff members interpret readings to position themselves—standing diagonally when direct approaches cause tension and using pauses instead of vocal cues for animals showing over-attunement. Initial tools are positioned within sight yet remain stationary which enables pets to visually adjust to the area before engagement starts. Anza Animal Clinic delivers integrative diagnostics surgical consults pain tracking sensory response care and structured mobility rehabilitation. Every treatment method modifies itself during application time. When a pet flattens its posture or redirects its gaze during sessions, trainers revert to anchoring techniques which may involve patterned movements or rhythmic steps to restore tranquility. Owners gain aftercare plans which focus on visual and tactile pacing through techniques such as extending hands in side arcs combined with movement contrast and guiding routine reentry using visual anchors. This mechanism prevents post-visit behaviors from escalating without cause while maintaining consistency in home care routines. Anza Animal Clinic delivers an intricate communication system through silent signals and responsive pacing to serve Westlake Village families and California pet owners beyond standard medical care.

We were delighted when we found the Anza clinic for our dog, who experienced the best care imaginable from the entire staff. My wife and I are moving with Winston to Washington state next week, so we had him in for a final checkup, and again marveled at the supportive atmosphere of the clinic, even receiving patient advice about what to watch out for in the colder, wetter climes of the Pacific Northwest.

Briana is amazing! So wonderful that words cannot give her enough kudos. Someone had sideswiped my car while I was in with my Chihuahua seeing the super smart and lovely vet, and WITHOUT my even asking Briana came out with a rag and a solution and rubbed off the very long mark the car left (no note, by the way). She told me the dent would pop out. Briana works on cars with her dad, so thanks dad (and mom) for raising such a decent and caring and delightful human being. Thumbs up to you Briana! Adore you!

I've been taking my dog Sadie to Anza for years and I wholeheartedly recommend them. Dr. Watase and Dr. Spadaro and their entire staff really care about my dog and it shows. Both Dr. Watase and Dr. Spadaro are wonderful. In my eyes, both of them practice veterinary medicine like an art in its highest form. I really want to express my deepest appreciation for the care, concern and responsiveness everyone at Anza has shown for my 13 year old dog who was recently diagnosed with cancer. I understand at this point it is all about "quality of life." Their knowledge and professionalism continues to provide my dog with more "happy days" that she so much deserves during this challenging time for us. When it comes to quality of care and excellence, this place is better than "as good as it gets." Keep up the great work.(p.s./ EDIT: sorry Anza but it appears Yelp is filtering my review. I took a LOT of time to write a positive review and they are filtering it! So, at present I'm a happy Anza customer but not so happy with Yelp).

Anza is a ripoff scam. Our dogs are always housed with the best kennel in town. Balcom Kennels. Balcom offered us to take our dogs to Anza for bordatella vaccination and during the transport, our dog caught the rear nail on the cage.The kennel immediately informed us of the incident and told us it was a mild situation. However, Anza immediately proceeded to sedate the dog, administer all kinds of antibiotics and the cost was astronomical. We NEVER GAVE PERMISSION FOR OUR DOG TO BE SEDATED. The kennel is a top business operation and felt that they should pay for the nail. The issue we have with is that that bill was over $200.When we confronted them, they said they received our permission to sedate the dog. Our response was: We were in a hospital in San Diego and NEVER answered our phone.They lied and found an opportunity to levy all these charges over a nail incident which was unnecessary. and to boot, they overcharged the bordatella shot which we were quoted $18 and they charged $22.

We had the misfortune to have the need to put our two older dogs down last week. We took them to Anza Animal Clinic and specifically to Melanie Spadaro, who was referred to us by a family friend. Melanie and the staff at Anza were extremely kind and accommodated us on short notice, giving us a private room and letting us take all the time we needed to say goodbye to our beloved friends. Melanie was very compassionate and exceedingly knowledgeable about the health and welfare of our animals and helped us through our difficult decision achieving true peace that it was for the best for our pets. We have another small dog and over the weekend adopted another young puppy from a local animal Rescue. We will be transferring all of their care to Melanie at Anza Animal Clinic.

Such an amazing vet. I took my dog to a different vet about a year ago, and I felt taken advantage of. It made me not want to take my baby to the vet anymore. But yesterday, I just had to. After a few days of research, I decided to take her to Anza. We called at about 2:30 and we were able to get her in at 3:45. THANK GOODNESS. She hadn't gone to the bathroom in 3 days and wasn't eating. Not even wet food! What dog turns down wet food?! Anyway, come to find out my little 3 year old Lhasa Apso has Colitis and a skin infection. We got her two different medications, a skin cream and 4 cans of special food, and our bill was only $117. Safe to say, we will be back. Thank you Dr. Watase for takin care of my baby!

I have gone to Dr. Watase years ago then moved. I have had several dogs but this particular one Nicky developed cancer and was given 2 to 6 months to live. Nicky lived 2 years and in a matter of about 36 hours declined horribly. Dr. Watase actually came to my house to relieve Nicky because Nicky was a large dog and wouldn't be comfortable being carried around like that. Who ever reviewed the fact they are rude. I did not find that at all. Even if a professional was not people friendly, I'm not in need of a friend but someone who is an expert in their field. I will say there was an employee there who was stern to me and I appreciate it to this day. I learned a lot by him. They are great and now I moved back into the area will be going there again.

I've been taking my two dogs to Anza Animal Clinic for several years and have been completely satisfied with the service my dogs and I have received. Dr.Watase really loves animals and you can tell by the way he treats them and by how they respond to him. He performed gall bladder surgery on one of my dogs and treated my other one for a bee sting allergy. Both dogs recovered completely and were given the best of care. I highly recommend this clinic. You should have no worries bringing your animals here.

I have been going to Anza for several years now and highly recommend their practice. Dr. Watase is a very compassionate, considerate and experienced Vet. I trust him to care for my beloved children my two Lab/Goldens - without hesitation. He is honest and fair for services that are provided. He appreciates incorporating cutting edge technology, alternative medicine treatments and stays active in the latest veterinarian research to enhance his clients' treatment plan. His staff is hard working and always helpful with questions esp. Nicole. Without a doubt, Anza is the place to bring your dogs or cats!

I have been going to Anza Animal Clinic for over 20 years. I have had several dogs cared for from very serious conditions to timely check ups. It is my pleasure to applaud Dr. Watase and one member of his staff especially-Nickie. I have always experienced excellent care and honest evaluations of my pets. Dr. Watase is kind,patient and an expert in his field-I haven't had that experience with many others veterinarians when my needs were critical and I was a basket case over my dogs' health and welfare. Once I met Dr. Watase I knew I didn't have to worry-my pets were in excellent well-trained care. I love him for all he has done for my dogs throughout the years and the efficient friendly care I always get from Nickie (Nicole). You can put your worries aside and trust this great team.Ronaye Calvert

I have been going to Dr. Watase for 10 years now. He is the most amazing vet. I should know. I am the founder of a non-profit dog rescue and have met my fair share of mediocre vets before being lucky enough to find him. I drive to him from Pasadena! He has cared for over 600 of my rescues alone. Always right on target with his opinion. He is the greatest diagnostician I've ever met. I could go on and on but he has saved the lives of so many dogs and I owe him so much. My personal dogs all get the best care there as well and when my beloved dog Dino got cancer, he took my calls right away. Even though I didn't want to hear it, he was also right with the time I had left with my dog. Dr. Watase is an angel to animals. Period.

After a few days of research, I decided to take her to Anza. We called at about 2:30 and we were able to get her in at 3:45. THANK GOODNESS. She hadn't gone to the bathroom in 3 days and wasn't eating. Not even wet food! What dog turns down wet food?! Anyway, come to find out my little 3 year old Lhasa Apso has Colitis and a skin infection. We got her two different medications, a skin cream and 4 cans of special food, and our bill was only $117. Safe to say, we will be back. Thank you Dr. Watase for takin care of my baby!

I have gone to Dr. Watase years ago then moved. I have had several dogs but this particular one Nicky developed cancer and was given 2 to 6 months to live. Nicky lived 2 years and in a matter of about 36 hours declined horribly. Dr. Watase actually came to my house to relieve Nicky because Nicky was a large dog and wouldn't be comfortable being carried around like that. Who ever reviewed the fact they are rude. I did not find that at all. Even if a professional was not people friendly, I'm not in need of a friend but someone who is an expert in their field. I will say there was an employee there who was stern to me and I appreciate it to this day. I learned a lot by him. They are great and now I moved back into the area will be going there again.

I have taken both of our dogs to Dr. Watase and his staff for several years. They have been the best. The Anza Animal Clinic is very caring, concerned and takes the time to talk with me and answer all my questions.
I had utilized other vet's in the Conejo Valley area prior to The Anza Clinic. None of them compare favorably to Dr. Watase's professionals.
See you on Tuesday Dr. Watase!

I wish I could have taken Dr Watase and his staff to Washington DC with me when I moved. It is difficult and rare to find a doctor and staff so supportive and patient with phone calls about every little anomaly two borderline hypochondriacs find in their feline companions.

If I could give this place less than one star I would. They botched my dog's spay surgery causing a host of issues including infections and unnecessary pain. AND now that shes of age she is in heat because they left pieces inside her. Can you say malpractice suit?!

I've been taking my two dogs to Anza Animal Clinic for several years and have been completely satisfied with the service my dogs and I have received. Dr.Watase really loves animals and you can tell by the way he treats them and by how they respond to him. He performed gall bladder surgery on one of my dogs and treated my other one for a bee sting allergy. Both dogs recovered completely and were given the best of care. I highly recommend this clinic. You should have no worries bringing your animals here.

I have been going to Anza for several years now and highly recommend their practice. Dr. Watase is a very compassionate, considerate and experienced Vet. I trust him to care for my beloved children my two Lab/Goldens - without hesitation. He is honest and fair for services that are provided. He appreciates incorporating cutting edge technology, alternative medicine treatments and stays active in the latest veterinarian research to enhance his clients' treatment plan. His staff is hard working and always helpful with questions esp. Nicole. Without a doubt, Anza is the place to bring your dogs or cats!

I have been going to Anza Animal Clinic for over 20 years. I have had several dogs cared for from very serious conditions to timely check ups. It is my pleasure to applaud Dr. Watase and one member of his staff especially-Nickie. I have always experienced excellent care and honest evaluations of my pets. Dr. Watase is kind,patient and an expert in his field-I haven't had that experience with many others veterinarians when my needs were critical and I was a basket case over my dogs' health and welfare. Once I met Dr. Watase I knew I didn't have to worry-my pets were in excellent well-trained care. I love him for all he has done for my dogs throughout the years and the efficient friendly care I always get from Nickie (Nicole). You can put your worries aside and trust this great team.Ronaye Calvert

I have been going to Dr. Watase for 10 years now. He is the most amazing vet. I should know. I am the founder of a non-profit dog rescue and have met my fair share of mediocre vets before being lucky enough to find him. I drive to him from Pasadena! He has cared for over 600 of my rescues alone. Always right on target with his opinion. He is the greatest diagnostician I've ever met. I could go on and on but he has saved the lives of so many dogs and I owe him so much. My personal dogs all get the best care there as well and when my beloved dog Dino got cancer, he took my calls right away. Even though I didn't want to hear it, he was also right with the time I had left with my dog. Dr. Watase is an angel to animals. Period.
